Hi, how are you?
Today we're going to see GTA IV,
a not so new game
but worth to be experienced in the Oculus Rift
We're using a mod that enables first person view
and we're also using TriDef3D
to use the Oculus
It's not well optimized, it does not work as well as we want,
but it's worth to have a walk inside GTA
Yes, we're inside GTA IV
Thanks to a first person mod
And thanks to TriDef3D
It's incredible to see people going by in front of us!
GTA is a perfect environment for virtual reality
A huge world
where we can roam freely
We can do what we want, go where we want,
break the law
It's really awesome
Watching every detail of the game
from the inside, we feel inside the city... oh the train!
It passed me so close
You can see some graphical glitches some times
We're using an unofficial mod
And we've also forced field of view inside TriDef3D
so I barely see the glitches inside the Oculus Rift
but you'll probably see some objects dissapearing on the sides
That's called 'geometry culling'
The game does know which objects not to draw, to enhance performance
But we're forcing fov from an external program, hence the glitches
And talking about performance, well, you GTA IV won lots of awards
but if I'm not mistaken, none of them
was a performance or optimization award
Incoming call... I pass
A police car here, I'll be good for now
And what can I say about being inside of the game?
Look here at the trash cans, with the particle effects
They are in perfect 3D! I feel like I could grab anything!
Take a look. Sometimes I can see part of my body, without head
That's because of the mod
It we move correctly it does not bother
The minimap on the lower left corner,
well, I can barely see it inside the Oculus Rift
So I should use TriDef3D safe fov key to zoom, like this
Now I can see the map correctly,
whenever I need to use it
Ok let's have a walk and see
if we feel comfortable in GTA
I need a vehicle
I could take this one
but in GTA is funnier to steal it from some who's driving
Oh, she run over me!
Get out of the car
All mine!
Well, inside the car we can also use the head tracking
And drive like in a real car
I had forgotten the physics of GTA cars
Let see if I can get anywhere without knocking over
because if it's already difficult from the outside,
from the inside it's even worse
Right now, these buldings in the distance are just
a bunch of pixels, with very few details
That's once again the weakness of this version of the Oculus Rift
Anyway, being inside a GTA game is incredible
Simply enjoying the ride...
But doing actual game missions, I'm not sure how it would work
because the mod has some glithes, but overall it works quite well
Sorry!
The effect is awesome
The 3D effect
You really feel that it's ahead of you!
Let's go on foot now
This is the urban transport over me
Not sure if there is an entrance nearby
I don't know the game very well
I have no clue of my location
If it's easy, I'll try to show it to you
If I can find an entrance nearby
Maybe here?
Yes, I think we can get up from here, let's take a look
It's incredible to see the pedestrians,
to find people of your same size, it's like being in the city
He keeps looking at me
Let's go up there
and see how it works
I want a GTA compatible with the Oculus Rift!
Let's wait for a train to arrive
Oh, the smoke feels very real!
People don't like that you stare at them
That train was on the other side
Here it comes! It will take us to another city zone
Haha... Wow... It was so close!
Let's see if I can get in
Done
I'll sit here
It will take us to another city zone
I'll get out at the next stop
This is quite dirty
It's a pity that you can't feel what is the Oculus Rift in a video
What I'm seeing right now
has nothing to see
with the window you're seeing
Being inside a GTA...
Look at the people, the book is in front of me!
Ok Ok
The height feeling is superb as usual
Let's see what happens after a few shots, it's GTA after all!
Let the party begin, that's the fun of GTA
Oh, bad place to start a party with the police here
Maybe they didn't notice
A little bit of chaos won't hurt
Now I'm attracting a bit of attention
I'll take this car
Let's get out of here
The car leans a lot!
I'm sorry... pardon... excuse me
Wow, what a feeling!
You really feel the crash!
Another pedestrian
It looks like nobody is coming after me!
A truck! I'm sure I can drive it
Careful!
Poor man
Finally! the police is here
What? Hands up? Me?
A fat policeman
I'm sorry!
And that was all???
After what I did?
Oh... dead end
Great
Can we get out over here or not?
Here's an exit, a walkway
That's great. Great effect
Ok, I don't think I need to make this video longer
You've seen a little bit
of the feeling of being inside GTA
Well, you haven't seen it, I've told you about it
I'm the guy with the Oculus Rift
But as I said, in the future,
when this is more widely used,
Maybe if Sony makes a headset for the PS4,
maybe then we could get a native vr GTA, with no third party hacks
That's all, that was GTA
See you soon!
